HangZhou West Lake Movietel

I absolutely loved my stay at Hangzhou West Lake Movietel! From the moment I arrived, the service was outstanding—especially from Xiao Wang at reception, who was incredibly friendly and professional. He even upgraded me to a better room at no extra cost, which was such a pleasant surprise. The room itself was spotless, beautifully designed with a creative touch, and every amenity worked perfectly. I especially appreciated the comfortable bed and modern bathroom. The hotel is quiet and serene, tucked away in a peaceful area yet still close enough to explore the nearby attractions like West Lake via public transit. It’s an ideal choice for both business trips and leisure stays. I’ll definitely be returning and recommending it to friends and colleagues.

JOYA Hangzhou Qianjiang CBD

Staying at JOYA Hangzhou Qianjiang CBD was an absolutely seamless and delightful experience. Located right in the heart of the city's central business district, the hotel is just steps away from Chengxing Road Metro Station (Line 4), making it incredibly convenient for exploring downtown Hangzhou and nearby attractions. The architecture blends traditional Chinese aesthetics with modern elegance—sophisticated and serene, though first-time visitors might initially struggle to find the entrance since it shares a building complex with other brands like Orange Hotel and Quanji. But once inside, you're greeted by a stunning open lobby with high ceilings and thoughtful layout that truly feels like stepping into a hidden gem. Check-in was smooth and efficient—no long waits, even during peak hours. Staff were attentive, offering help with luggage and guiding guests directly to the dedicated elevator for JOYA, which helps avoid confusion with neighboring hotels. Cleanliness stood out immediately: every corner—from front desk to guest rooms and public areas—was spotless. Even hard-to-reach spots like bathroom corners and faucets were impeccably clean. No dust on bedside tables or furnishings, which speaks volumes about their hygiene standards. Room amenities were top-notch: smart toilets, a large HD projection TV, motorized blackout curtains, and a wide range of pillow options to suit different sleep preferences. The mattress struck the perfect balance—firm yet comfortable, ideal for those with neck pain or light sleepers. What really impressed me was how staff remembered small details: after housekeeping, they neatly organized toiletries in my bathroom—absolute heaven for anyone with OCD tendencies. And the afternoon tea? Exceptional. Fresh fruit, beautifully presented, and clearly sourced with care. It felt like being welcomed into a home where every detail matters. Overall, this wasn’t just a stay—it was a memorable, stress-free retreat. Highly recommended for travelers seeking comfort, style, and genuine hospitality.

My friend and I visited West Lake and chose this hotel for our stay. From the moment we walked in, the lobby felt grand and welcoming, with staff smiling and greeting us warmly. The front desk agent was incredibly helpful—always polite and quick to assist with any request. Our room was fresh and clean, clearly recently renovated, and everything we needed arrived promptly. Breakfast was a highlight—wide variety of options, delicious and filling. After breakfast, it only took about 8 minutes to walk to West Lake, making sightseeing super convenient. We had a fantastic time exploring the area, and the hotel’s location, service, and overall vibe made our trip even better. Highly recommend this place if you’re visiting Hangzhou!

Crystal Orange Hotel (Hangzhou East Railway Station)

Located just a short walk from Hangzhou East Railway Station, this hotel is incredibly convenient—especially if you're traveling by train. The journey from the west square takes less than ten minutes, making it ideal for early departures or late arrivals. Though the decor shows a bit of age, the room was clean, comfortable, and surprisingly quiet despite being right in a major transit hub. I slept well without any noise disturbances, which was a big plus. One minor concern: I noticed a staff member calling out 'Noodles are ready!' without a mask, which made me slightly uneasy about hygiene. That said, it's just a small detail in an otherwise excellent stay. The overall value, location, and comfort make this a top choice for travelers looking for a stress-free, reliable stop in Hangzhou.
